16 – 18 SEPT. 2025 | MESSE BASEL

Inspiring the Future of Chemistry and Life Sciences.

The Ilmac industry event at the important location in Basel is the largest meeting place for the chemical and life science industry in Switzerland.

Ilmac has its origins in the Swiss trade fair for international laboratory, measurement and automation technology in chemistry, which has been held since 1959. Today, the chemistry and life science brand networks the industry both physically and digitally.

With its value proposition “Inspiring the Future of Chemistry and Life Sciences”, it encourages the development of new ideas and solutions and presents trends and innovations from research and industry at significant locations such as Basel and Lausanne.
